Pozza - Val Monzoni - Passo delle Selle - San Pellegrino

A classic high-altitude traverse that connects Val Monzoni to San Pellegrino Pass, climbing over Passo delle Selle, a panoramic ridge that still bears witness to the First World War.

From Pozza walk up into the Val San Nicolò as far as the Crocifisso Chapel and take the right fork for the Val Monzoni (path no. 603). Go past the gate and keep climbing. At times the gradient is fairly steep but the shade is very good. You will pass the fork for "Pian de la Peracia" (path no. 635), cross the "Ruf di Munciogn" stream and you will come to the dairy. Soon after is the path for the Valacia mountain no. 624 to the right. Keep going on path no. 603 through the larch trees and when you reach the foot of the mountain the path goes to the left over a couple of "toai" (or gullies) to the T.  Taramelli Refuge. Next you cross the stream "Ruf de le Sele" twice to reach a steep section of tight bends in the path now no. 604. Cut across the "Spiz de Alochet" and soon you will reach the lake called "Lèch de le Sele". Go to the left of the lake and after a fair climb passing remains of Austrian huts from WW1 you will reach the Passo delle Selle Refuge. From the pass go down into the Val San Pellegrino. The descent is steep initially, then gentler as you reach the "Campagnacia" area. When you get to the "Costabella" chairlift the gradient increases once more but not long after you will reach the San Pellegrino Pass.
